Evosport painted reflectors received and installed
Got my reflectors from Evosport today. Quality is very nice--no sign of the raised lettering.
R&R as follows: 1) Press in on the bunper cover just below the reflector with you thumb until a couple of the bottom tabs "pop" free. 2) Using the purchase you have gained, force the reflector upward hard, compressing the top springs, then rotate the bottom out and free. The reflecgtor will come out. 3) Installation is pretty much the reverse, though it is slightly harder due to the flimsiness of the cover. You will need to force the new reflector upward to compress the top springs, then rotate the bottom in.

If this is becoming too much or a production, I have no problem saving Long any more grief and having my payment refunded. Long/Fifth- Please let me know. Thanks!

Got mine also GregW from evosport. Thanks for the tip. I installed them yesterday in the same fashion you installed yours.
Why do the directions that come with it say "Start from the top down" |

Those are the old E46 instructions--they asked if they could use my photos to update them.

Group buy
My advice: go with a professional dealer.
I know Longtran means well, but this is becoming a bad joke. Supply problems, bleed through in the painting, shipping errors, delays. Not worth it to save a few bucks, IMO.

Long-
I got my Space Gray, these are way way too dark and the spray(which is oversprayed all over the clips) did not cover the edges. I'm not going to right out ask for a refund, but this is not Space Gray that I received. The color and quality is much different than the Evosport painted reflectors I ordered and received last Monday (just in case yours didn't come through I ordered these too, no offense). What's the deal with the paint bro? I dont mind paying for back up reflectors(yours) but these don't even match. PM me if you need to. Thanks,

thanks again Brad! (Brad had pm'd me last week and told me that he sent back some of the black reflectors because they weren't up to his quality specs- so they took an extra week to get to me - worth the wait.) Hope everything gets resolved with this group buy - there are definite benefits with economies of scale - just unfortunate when things get a little messy. |

Think Long tried his best, I'm sure it was just hard to do this on his own. Thanks,
